This week I am going to use some possible cliche sayings and phrases to show how I want my Gifted Minded children, and every one else, to see my HOME.
HOME is where the heart is.
HOME can be a heaven on Earth.
There is no place like HOME.
HOME is where you hang your hat.
HOME sweet HOME.
Love at HOME.

G is for GOD
If someone were to ask me, "Can your boys understand and believe in GOD?" Not only would I say yes but my personality would counter that question with this one, "Can you or your children understand and believe in GOD?"
Understanding, believing, or even teaching a Gifted Mind of GOD is possible. For those families, like mine, it is essential. Do my boys grasp the understanding right away and with the other children their age? No, but sometime the concepts that are being taught at church they grasp before the other children in their age group, like any other child.
My boys need to have GOD in their life, not just because their dad and I say they do, or because the church leaders say they do, but because it gives them joy and strength to know that they have someone else on their side who loves them.

F is for FEAR
As a mother there is always some sort of FEAR that you have for your children, even if they are not Gifted. But as a mother you have to face some of your FEARS, if you don't you never know how far your children can grow. Just like anything in life you have to pick your battles and the same can be said of FEAR.
If every parent given the news that their child will be considered a Gifted Mind gave into their FEAR, how many of those parents would no longer be parents? And how much would they miss out on? FEAR is a very nasty and tricky emotion, one should always be very careful when making a decision when FEAR is involved.
I distinctly remember when I was pregnant with both of my boys praying to God that they just be healthy. I didn't care about anything else, I just wanted them to be healthy. My FEAR was that they would have some sort of illness like diabetes, leukemia, etc. and I didn't think I could handle that. I've known some people who would say that God cheated me, that have Bi-Polar, Asperger's, or any mental disorder is not healthy. I don't care. I wouldn't change a thing about my kids. Yes, it is hard some days to be their mother, but it is so worth it.
